Eternal Life by Daily Divination

Chapter 245: Chapter 187: Double Lifespan, Spirit Ascension Technique

This was not Li Chang’an’s first epiphany.

In fact, he had experienced many epiphanies before.

This was, however, the first time he had gained enlightenment on a specific type of Magic.

’This Magic is powerful, but it consumes a lot of energy.’

Li Chang’an felt a wave of weakness and quickly took out an Elixir Pill for recovery, swallowing it.

After resting for a moment, he had recovered considerably. His gaze returned to the Wooden Scroll in his hand, his eyes full of anticipation.

’There has to be a Spirit Ascension Technique in here.’

With this hope, Li Chang’an extended his Divine Sense into the scroll.

In the next instant, four large words appeared before his eyes.

Ancient Wood Evergreen Technique!

Li Chang’an’s heart filled with joy. He suppressed his excitement and continued reading carefully.

This Cultivation Technique was just as he had sensed—it was a Perfect Technique!

Moreover, his Ancient Wood Health Cultivation Technique was the very prelude to this technique!

If he switched to cultivating this Evergreen Technique and reached the Foundation Establishment Peak, he would accumulate three hundred sixty-five drops of Liquid Magical Power in his Dantian.

According to the technique’s description, this state was the most perfect, increasing the success rate of Core Formation by thirty percent!

’It actually comes with a thirty percent boost to the Core Formation success rate!’

Li Chang’an was overjoyed. ’A Perfect Technique, indeed.’

Furthermore, if he succeeded in Core Formation, there was a high probability he would condense an Immortal Golden Core!

Core Formation Cultivators also had varying levels of strength. The weakest, naturally, formed a Fake Pill.

The Fake Pill Realm could not even be considered true Core Formation. A cultivator in this realm possessed less than half the strength of an ordinary Golden Core Master and would be unable to advance for the rest of their life.

Above the Fake Pill was the True Pill.

The True Pill itself was divided into three qualities: high, medium, and low grade.

And above the True Pill was the Immortal Golden Core mentioned in this Cultivation Technique!

’If I can form an Immortal Golden Core, my chances of achieving Nascent Soul Formation in the future will be even greater.’

Excited, Li Chang’an continued reading.

However, he was soon taken aback.

After the section on Core Formation, there was no Nascent Soul Scroll; the technique simply cut off!

’This Cultivation Technique is incomplete?’

Li Chang’an gripped the Wooden Scroll tightly and focused his senses.

Just then, he suddenly sensed that in a place extremely far away, there seemed to be another Wooden Scroll faintly resonating with the one in his hand.

However, the place where that Wooden Scroll was located was simply too far.

It was even beyond the borders of the Zhao Country Cultivation Immortality Realm that Li Chang’an knew.

’It seems that if I reach the Golden Core realm in the future, I’ll have to take a long journey.’

Li Chang’an wasn’t disappointed. As long as there was a clue to the subsequent parts of the technique, it was good enough.

The three cultivation scrolls within this Wooden Scroll were enough for him to cultivate to the Golden Core Peak.

He was only at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment.

He was still a long way from the Golden Core Peak.

’Can’t rush things. I’ll take it slow.’

Li Chang’an was in a good state of mind and continued to look through the other contents of the Wooden Scroll.

In this Wooden Scroll, besides the three scrolls for the Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, and Core Formation techniques, there were three other sections.

He opened the first section and examined it carefully.

Inside, it recorded the origin and characteristics of the Ancient Wood Evergreen Technique.

“The Ancient Wood Evergreen Technique is the Sect’s Foundation Technique of the Ancient Wood Sect, one of the Nine Great Sects. It is suitable for Cultivators with a Wood Spirit Root to practice…”

Li Chang’an had long heard of the Nine Ancient Major Sects, but this was the first time he had learned the name of one of them.

The Nine Great Sects that could rule the Ancient Cultivation Immortality Realm were naturally all powerful.

As the Sect’s Foundation Technique of such a sect, the Ancient Wood Evergreen Technique had many strange and wonderful characteristics.

The most prominent among them…

…was life extension!

Cultivators who practiced the Ancient Wood Evergreen Technique had a lifespan twice that of their peers at the same cultivation level!

Reading this, Li Chang’an’s breathing grew ragged.

’Double the lifespan!’

A normal Foundation Establishment Cultivator could live past two hundred and forty years.

If Li Chang’an switched to this technique, he could live to be four hundred and eighty!

With the addition of some life-extending Elixir Pills and Treasures, living past five hundred years would be no problem.

A lifespan comparable to a Golden Core Master!

With such a long life, even with his Low Grade Spirit Root, he had a chance of breaking through to the Golden Core realm.

Besides lifespan, there were several other prominent characteristics.

For example, Youthful Appearance, Healing, and Spirit Plant Affinity.

A Cultivator of this technique was well-suited to become a Spirit Plant Master.

“Evergreen Magical Power can accelerate the growth of Spirit Plants. It can even… if one is willing to sacrifice one’s own lifespan, instantly mature a Spirit Plant from a seed!”

Li Chang’an was secretly astonished. This effect was simply heaven-defying.

Even without consuming one’s own lifespan, it could make Spirit Plants grow far faster than normal.

As for consuming his lifespan…

…he’d rather not.

Li Chang’an thought about it; no Spirit Plant was as precious as his own life.

Additionally, the Healing effect of the Evergreen Technique was even stronger than that of the Health Cultivation Technique.

After switching techniques, his own Magical Power would be equivalent to a Spiritual Elixir.

Therefore, a Cultivator of this technique was also suited to becoming a Spirit Doctor.

Among its abilities was a forbidden Magic Gate that also consumed lifespan. As long as enough life was spent, it could instantly restore a person on the verge of death to a normal state!

Li Chang’an thought it over carefully. He felt there was no one in this world worth sacrificing his own lifespan to save.

’I probably won’t have any use for this Magic either.’

He secretly warned himself that he must never let outsiders know about his Cultivation Technique and its characteristics.

Otherwise, he would certainly meet a terrible end.

「About a quarter of an hour later.」

Li Chang’an finished reading all the content in this section.

With a thought, he moved on to the second section.

This section recorded two types of Magic that complemented the Ancient Wood Evergreen Technique.

“Cyan Wood Divine Light, an Attack Technique. It condenses Evergreen Magical Power into a devastating ray of divine light. Just by reaching the Entry-Level, its power is comparable to an ordinary Celestial Grade Magic!”

“Ancient Wood Divine Armor, a Defense Magic. It condenses a layer of divine armor outside the body…”

The two types of Magic, one for attack and one for defense, were of an extremely high tier.
